Description: In the mid-1960s, Hunter S. Thompson spent almost two years living with the controversial Angels, cycling up and down the coast, reveling in the anarchic spirit of their clan, and, as befits their name, raising hell. His book successfully captures a singular moment in American history, when the biker lifestyle was first defined, and when such countercultural movements were electrifying and horrifying America. Thompson, the creator of Gonzo journalism, writes with his usual bravado, energy, and brutal honesty, and with a nuanced and incisive eye; as The New Yorker pointed out, “For all its uninhibited and sardonic humor, Thompson’s book is a thoughtful piece of work.” As illuminating now as when originally published in 1967, Hell’s Angels is a gripping portrait, and the best account we have of the truth behind an American legend. Book has no marks throughout book, not even a name or inscription. The book cover, bind and pages are in Very Good condition overall. First few pages have a long diagonal crease which is easier to see in pictures but appears minor when looking though book. Cover has some creases and pages are starting to yellow at the edges but this is a very good, readable copy.
